David Bowie - Time: chords

Em                                                      F
Time he's waiting in the wings he speaks of senseless things
                       C
His script is you and me boys

Em                                                 F
Time he flexes like a whore falls wanking to the floor
                      C
His trick is you and me, boy

C#dim7                    Dm      C             F
Time in Quaaludes and red wine demanding Billy Dolls
                      D                 C
And other friends of mine take your time
           C/B      Am     G            F
The sniper in the brain regurgitating drain
  D/F#          G                   C       C/B
Incestuous and vain and many other last names
   Am                      G            F
I look at my watch it says 9:25 and I think

            D/F#      G
Oh God I'm still alive

Chorus:
                    C  C/B Am
We should be on by now
     G              F D/F#
We should be on by now
 G
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

You are not a victim you just scream with boredom
You are not evicting time

Chimes Goddamn you're looking old you'll freeze and catch a cold
'Cause you've left your coat behind take your time
Breaking up is hard but keeping dark is hateful
I had so many dreams I had so many breakthroughs
But you my love were kind but love has left you dreamless

    D/F#                 G                         C
The door to dreams was closed your path was real dreamless
                C/B     Am   G                   F
Perhaps you're smiling now smiling through this darkness
    D/F#          G                         C
But all I had to give was guilt for dreaming
C/B Am     G              F D/F# G                   C
      We should be on by now     We should be on by now
C/B Am     G              F D/F# G                   C
      We should be on by now     We should be on by now
C/B Am     G              F D/F#
      We should be on by now
